Multiple penile schwannomas

MedGenMed. 2006 Aug 9;8(3):35.

Abstract

The occurrence of penile schwannoma is very rare. A 41-year-old man presented with multiple penile tumors and pain on erection. The largest tumor causing pain was excised. Pathology was characteristic of benign schwannoma. We recommend that penile schwannomas be excised if the tumors cause pain or are malignant.
